The University of North Dakota School of Engineering and Mines, the Computer Science Department at the Center for Aerospace Studies, and the Mathematics Department in conjunction with the Office of Native American Programs has established a scholarship program designed to assist students in the computer science, math, and engineering fields. The goal of the University of North Dakota Computer Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Scholarship Program is to raise the number of disadvantaged students, women, and minorities students pursing majors and minors in technological fields to the highest possible level. To accomplish that goal, the Principal Investigator, Co-Principal Investigators, and the Management Team at the University of North Dakota have established the following three objectives: 1. To recruit and support 40 students in the Computer Science, Engineering and Math fields that meet the financial need and project criterion, have the potential of obtaining their degrees in the aforementioned fields by December 31, 200l, and have demonstrated academic merit in their application for a scholarship.2. To provide a high quality and sustained faculty/student relationships between all 40 scholarship recipients and their mentors within the Computer Science, Engineering, and Math faculty, and closely monitor their progress.3. To provide support/enhancement activities and opportunities to all 40 scholarship recipients during each of the four academic terms of the project.The primary method being used to achieve the aforementioned goal and objectives is by establishment of a high quality faculty/student mentoring relationships that are supported by existing administrative, social, and academic support currently available at the University of North Dakota. The method has been highly successful in previous projects at the University. The University of North Dakota has been and continues to be a national leader in producing graduates among women, ethnic and cultural minorities, disabled students, first generation college students, and those that are financially disadvantaged.The project is increasing the number of diverse graduates in each of the computer science, engineering, and mathematics fields. In addition, the project is providing access to scholarship opportunities for rural and farm country students who have been affected by the depressed farm economy, natural disasters, or long-time impoverishment.

北达科他州工程与矿业学院、航空航天研究中心计算机科学系和数学系与美国原住民项目办公室合作，建立了一个奖学金计划，旨在帮助计算机科学、数学和工程领域的学生。北达科他州计算机科学，工程和数学奖学金计划的大学的目标是提高弱势学生，妇女和少数民族学生的数量追求专业和未成年人在技术领域的最高水平。为了实现这一目标，北达科他州大学的主要研究者、共同主要研究者和管理团队确立了以下三个目标：1. 招募和支持40名符合财务需求和项目标准的计算机科学，工程和数学领域的学生，有可能在2001年12月31日之前获得上述领域的学位，并在申请奖学金时表现出学术价值。 在计算机科学、工程和数学系的所有40名奖学金获得者和他们的导师之间提供高质量和持续的师生关系，并密切监测他们的进展。 在该项目的四个学期中，为所有40名奖学金获得者提供支持/增强活动和机会。实现上述目标和目的的主要方法是通过建立高质量的教师/学生指导关系，这些关系得到北达科他州大学现有的行政，社会和学术支持的支持。该方法在大学以前的项目中非常成功。 北达科他州的大学一直是并将继续是在妇女，少数民族和文化，残疾学生，第一代大学生和那些经济困难的毕业生的国家领导者。该项目正在增加在每个计算机科学，工程和数学领域的多样化毕业生的数量。 此外，该项目还为受农业经济萧条、自然灾害或长期贫困影响的农村和农业国家学生提供获得奖学金的机会。
